Nike Zoom Lebron VI (6) – Akron

This past weekend, Lebron James attended the NBA 2009 All Star Weekend in which he gave us a first look at the newest colorway of the Nike Zoom Lebron VI (6). At that time, we were unsure of the inspiration behind the pair, but after some more detailed pictures, it is quite obvious that this colorway is inspired by the city where James was born—Akron, Ohio. Nike has even gone to the extent of including the name of the street where “the King” grew up, Hickory. Featuring a navy blue rear with white imagery accented by a white toebox, a white swoosh, and a navy blue midsole, this pair has an overall clean and fresh look. Nike has spruced up this colorway by including many gold accents seen throughout the sneaker. An official release date is still under question, but be sure to stay tuned for updates. Via SC.
